Iron depletion suppresses mTORC1-directed signalling in intestinal Caco-2 cells via induction of REDD1

Iron is an indispensable micronutrient that regulates many aspects of cell function, including growth and proliferation. These processes are critically dependent upon signalling via the mammalian or mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). Herein, we test whether iron depletion induced by...
